Abstract: |
This report summarises the results of an archaeological watching brief carried out during ground reduction works associated with a development at the Grade II listed 18th century, Old Inn Farm, Main Street, Folkton, North Yorkshire. The aim of the watching brief was to observe groundwork's that may impact on archaeology which predated the original building. No archaeological deposits suggestive of earlier activity were observed during the watching brief. The removal of 19th- 20th century flooring exposed made up ground that extended across most of the twelve rooms. The composition of this made up ground was consistent in appearance. Structural remains, such as walls pertaining to the original 18th century building, were present underneath later 19th-20th century wooden floors and concrete. The southern part of the main house appeared to have had at least two phases of construction (18th century and late 20th century). Foundation walls related to these phases where found within Room E and Room F. These structural remains are likley to be associated with the extension/remodelling of the original 18th century Blue Bell Inn. |
